We have this great SQL tool SQL Query File that runs SQL SELECT statements and outputs the results to many formats.

We include a web browser (HTML) based interface, but what I would like to do is try to create a tool that allows users to run SQL statements with OUTPUT(*HTML) and then evoke the Client PC's Web browser with that HTML content loaded into it. I think this would be very cool and helpful.

I know how to launch the browser from the Green Screen using STRPCCMD, however I can't for the life of me figure out how to pump the generate HTML content into that browser session. I know we can't just link to the IFS file because that requires HTTP server configuration settings.

Bob, it may be a bit more complicated than that. The base IFS folder probably needs to be a netserver shared folder to be visible, which is not a big deal. And the user's Windows user ID and password may need to be exactly the same as the IBM i user and password, so login happens automagically, else a pop up sign on window may appear. Just FYI. I've been down this road before.
